super energy removal 1x 79/102
cilan 1x 86/99
1x here comes team rocket! 71/82

I would like to have 4 super energy removal. I would also like to have 3 enhanced hammers. The trainer choice in general is bad as I only really have old cards. The excadrills are in the deck for the drill run attack which costs 3 fighting and discards an energy attached to the defending pokemon while doing 80 damage. Moltres ex has the destructive flame attack which has on a coin flip discard an energy attached to the defending pokemon. ditto, flareon, and eevee are for filling the deck.
 
(Bump) I ordered some cards to make this deck more "inside" the gimmick. I want to put down an energy on every turn, while denying my opponent any energy.
Pokemon 13
2 Moltres EX
2 Reshiram
4 Excadrill
4 Drilbur (various sets)
1 Ditto (fossil set)

1 Pokemon Communication
1 Copycat HGSS
1 Narrow gym gym heroes
1 vs seeker
3 Skyla
4 super energy removal
4 energy removal

2 energy retrieval
3 Professor's Letter
2 Cheren
2 Bill
2 Switch
2 Gust of wind
The Moltes and Excadrill are for energy removal along with Energy Removal, Super Energy Removal, and enhanced hammer. Skyla is for searching my deck for the energy removals. Ditto is for having something beefy up on turn 1. (as long as the opponent has something beefy) I only have 1 vs seeker because I do not use very many supporters, as most of my trainers are from the wizards sets. I like Here comes team rocket because it is fun, even though town map is better. Gust of wind is a non supporter that is essentially lysandre. I have reshiram so that I can use pokemon communication in order to look for one of my excadrill line. I have A ton of energy search/retrieval so that I can make my opponent rage by having obscene amounts of energy. I hope you like this gimmick, because it was fun to make.
